Hi,
while compiling glibc with gcc12, I get a warning saying that sigmask is
deprecated. Should we care?

For what it's worth, the sigvec(3) manual page has since 2005 said:
These functions are provided in glibc as a compatibility interface
for programs that make use of the historical BSD signal API. This
API is obsolete: new applications should use the POSIX signal API
(sigaction(2), sigprocmask(2), etc.).
Cheers,
Michael
